Ooh the non-recorded-no-holds-barred after hours conversation of our
#BadAssBA and #BusinessAnalyst trailblazer meetup…
A few gold nuggets:
🍩Insecurity over the state of the ecosystem – wht to do?
Vanessa Grant shares how human connections networking and sharing your learning showcases your expertise.
Citing Tristan Lombard about your online presence – are you a brand of value or a personal brand?
A lot of people post online to ‘signal’ – showing off cert/badge etc.
BUT the question is: Are you adding noise or adding value to the community?
But what if you said: “I just achieved the super badge, and I think it’s a great for these types of people. And this is how I studied for it. Or I thought this part was really confusing, and there’s like, a bug here, but it took me about eight hours to do it…
THEN you’re actually learning publicly and sharing value with folks.
And the folks that are on the same path as you, either ahead or behind, will start noticing as you are developing because you’re being public about where you are.
🍩The associates exames give confidence and they are going away. Question: Should I waste my time with Marketing Associate, for example?
{Response was not-recorded for a reason. If you want to know the answer, come along to the next session and ask again 😬}
🍩Some BA Exam tips: use Focus on Force, but also use other sources. Read questions slowly. If you have dyslexia you can get text to speech support (h/t @marcelo cohen)
🍩Final tip for Clicked Exam vouchers – you can reschedule your exams as often as possible as long as you use them before deadline, and the Clicked vouchers expire end of June!
And HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU Vanessa Grant 🥳🎂🍾

And thank you again Tokeer Ahmed for an outstanding talk on the 5 Riches of Discovery 🥰
